Bavaria Pilsener

Bottle. Clear yellow coloured with a white head. Aroma of malts and grain. Flavour of malts and grain. Hoppy finsish.

Bottle. Golden colour with a small white head. Malty aroma and a light sweet malty taste. Light body with a sweet light dry finish.

I had this at a tasting at Bevmo. It’s plain, simple, basically a step above water. There is nothing special about this beer.

Not bad for the price, but had a similar watery feel as that of the mass produced american beers.

Aha! We have a king! Bavaria Pilsener, sovereign in a green can, ruler of all the cheap beers! I must say, this lager did nothing to tickle my fancy, but at the same time it didn’t make my face implode like most bitter, cheap lagers do. I remember when my friend burst into the apartment, proudly decreeing his purchase of “the ultimate” beer, holding aloft Bavaria Pilsener. The Frenchman (roommate) and I both gave a derisive chortle and gave the poor sap a sip of a superior brew. However, I think the amateur beer drinker had a point. Of all the cheap and disappointing beers I’ve had (mostly lagers) this is by far the most tolerable. It’s like saying, of all the nasty diseases a person could get like leprosy, typhoid, Chlamydia, gangrene and such, compared to them the flu seems downright peachy. I didn’t even look at the color because I was too busy feeling rebellious drinking straight from the can, but the smell was your simple lager smell. It sort of reminds me of beer in cooking; basic and smells like…beer. The taste is your typical cheap swill without the contrition and guilt that comes afterwards. If I wanted to have a second beer after a quality one, maybe this wouldn’t be so bad. Real guilt is having a good beer when you’re too drunk to appreciate it. So, for those late night college parties when the good liquor is gone, Bavaria Pilsener for pittance it is. I don’t intend to find myself in a situation like that anytime soon, though.

this brew made me feel like i had an electric eel in my mouth and my finger was stuck in the car door.

Pours pale with a big, quick fading white head. The aroma is grassy, grainy and skunky. The flavor is grassy and dry. The mouthfeel is sparkling, finish is metallic.

A sad replica of what once was beer, now a not so sweet soda. Total lack of everything that makes a good beer.
